Hello! Checking in. I will be playing Ranak. Does anyone have feedback on my build? I am still toying with taking the profession: sailor or fishing skill. Not decided yet.


Well you definitely need profession (cook) to fit your character description and backstory and I guess fishing would complement that better than sailor if you ask me

It appears Dinali was accepted for another S&S game, and is posting in there quite frequently. I wonder if she knows she has been accepted into this game as well, and if so, which game will she choose to play?


Ranak is all set. I have finalized his build. As soon as the gameplay post is up I will post. :-)

Not sure. Time will tell.

Goliath, you had originally said only 4 PCs, does that mean there is another down select in our future?


Please forgive my drooling at being able to play a S&S game. I like seafaring campaigns a lot. MUST...PLAY...SOON.


Hello all, sorry for the weird timezone posts.

@Jesal: I did say I was only taking four to begin with but with all the interesting picks I had I bumped it up to six

@Alabaster: If that is true then we will proceed with the five others I have already selected

@Grand Moff Vixen: Don't worry, we will begin play as soon as Morgan posts

Has anyone PM'd Morgan to let her know she was chosen? She hasn't posted since she applied for this game.

EDIT: I PM'd her. I meant to say that in the original post. My intent was to ask if anyone else had, and if she replied to you or not.

Hey, guys! Goliath asked me to join in on the fun! Looking forward to playing with you!

So, we're waiting on Morgan, then?


I believe so.

Goliath, I made a small edit to Alabaster. I applied his racial +2 to dex instead of str. I did so because I forgot that when I made his original progression plans, it was for a mythic version so I was counting on his mythic +2 enhancement to bump him up to qualify for two weapon fighting. The changes it made to him as he is now are minimal. I also fixed his skills. I have no idea what I was thinking when I calculated them the other day, but they were all wrong.

As far as how he is going to progress as a role playing character, I want him to "grow into" being a pirate. He's only 19, and has been pirating for a year before being pressed into the wormwood. I want him to rise through the ranks, so to speak, eventually becoming the captain of his own ship. His trait and skill choices are meant to help him in game with that. Know.- Geography and Prof- Sailor chief among them.

He's smarter than your average pirate, and devoutly believes in the freedom Besmara offers in her teachings, so being pressed is going to be hard for him to swallow, so I'm going to have a lot of fun roleplaying that. Lol. He's a friendly sort, and won't have any problem accepting other party members as they are, though he will try to bring the Lady's teachings to them every now and then.

So, while we wait, what does everyone else have planned/ want their character to do? What are your personalities like? I can't wait to sail with everyone!

Greetings fellow sea venturers.

Dropping in for the lady named Morgan.
Pleased to make your aquaintance.

Edward's curious about the way of life of his father. He knows just bits and pieces, but something inside calls to him.

Personality wise, Edward's a bit of a sarcast and quite the smoothtalker.
Maybe he'll have a bit of an Antonio Banderas accent. Since contrary to what you'd expect from his name, he wasn't raised by upstanding decent society.


Alright well I have decided to stop waiting for Morgana and have invited Edward to join us if he wishes. The gameplay post is up, let the adventure begin!


hp 12/12; Fort +4, Ref +4, Will +4; Init +2;

Huzzah!


I made one small change before my gameplay post. Strength is now 13 and Wisdom is 14. I swapped them. Also, I took Smeller as it plays into his looks and his trait. I really didn't want the Orc Ferocity racial trait. He really isn't the raging type in my mind.

It made more sense.


Not a problem, it kind of makes sense

Sorry for the delay, y'all. I'm usually fairly regular in my posting. I had an event going on yesterday that stopped me from checking the recruitment thread, though. Am I still in?

Just to let you guys know, I'll be working for a good chunk of the day. Should be back early in the evening.

I'm going to have to start thinking of ways how your every day musical instruments can be used as weapons or tools of sabotage.


In answer to your question about the lute, considering it is a hollowed out instrument, I guess you could use it as a kind of club dealing 1d4 bludgeoning damage with a x2 crit. Don't forget to take into account the -4 penalty to attack rolls with improvised weapons

Say GM, who on the list is the most attractive human female?
With his background, he'd likely try to smoothtalk her into the social zone first.


Depends on your preferences but as far as attractive females go I would probably say Sandara is the most attractive, followed by Syl and Rosie who are tied. Then you would have Tilly, Samms, Shivikah, Medlar and finally Aretta

Thank you.
I'm looking forward to hopefully juicy diplomacy rolls.

Did i mention i get a bonus on those when talking to women? ^^


Didn't even need to, saw that in your character sheet

Better move fast though, the other's seem to be grabbing fancies left and right ;)

Alabaster's going to keep trying to influence Sandara for sure. She's just the type of woman for him. Religious, yet a little on the wild side. Perfect match. Haha


Well this ought to make for some juicy competition then if she just so happens to catch Edward's eye as well

Religious common ground ok, but er......a bard. ;)
May the best charm win.

Btw, does the following count as a factor?

Silver tongue: In addition, when they use Diplomacy to shift a creature's attitude, they can shift up to three steps up rather than just two.

Who was it that said another source of healing (pointing at me) would be nice? Bard or not, I'm the offspring of some notorious pirate. I'm no killer, but i am no goody 2-shoes either. We'll see how this plays out.

If she's unlucky enough to be KO on the ground and you fighting up front....guess who'll lay the healing hand on her then...hmm? ^^

Lol at the result.

I've taken the liberty looking up pics of the ladies.
Sandara
Rosie
Narak's target?
Samms: no results
Giffer
Tilly
Badger Medlar
Shivikah: no result
Aretta: no result
Syl Bansion: no result

Forgive the lack of current roleplay on Dario's part, he's not the most social character onboard the wormwood and would rather make sure of any situation before causing potential mayhem. Despite his rugged good looks and devilish wit, the man is quite LN and has his own code of rules.

Never fear though, in latter days he will surely step up and find a place aboard the ship.

Btw, the pic of Tilly is invalid. Seems it's some random pic coming up under the same term, so no imge on Tilly either.

GM, if it is ok, Edward would switch out Disguise Self with Clw.


@Edward: Sure I don't really mind, it will probably be nice to have additional healing in the times to come so no problems there.

On an additional note, for all magic casters, as long as you have not done more then one Nighttime Action or have succeeded the Con check for additional ship actions you count as having already prepared your spells for the next day.

If you failed the Con check or are fatigued during the next day you either have no spells for the day or you may attempt a Stealth check to take a short nap, meditate, study your spell book etc. to gain your daily spell allotment.


My wayfinder app stopped working properly. I will try to get a post up as soon as I can. I am on my phone though, and will do my best.

GM Goliath, for future notes, are you OK with customized summon lists for deities?

Specifically, Gozreh's adds to summon nature's ally as follows (most are a ways off):

II: Merfolk
VII: Young frost giant
VIII: frost giant/young cloud giant
IX: cloud giant and young storm giant

Does that have anything to do with the pics i've provided? Or is it Samms, according to your talking you two seem on good terms.

Nothing to do with the pics. And with Samms, it seems more like a close friendship. Maybe turning into a romance, I'm not sure. The woman I'm thinking of going for a romance with doesn't show up until Book 3.
